Cortex Labs – Case Studies

Client impact

Real systems, real ROI.

A rotating view into how Cortex helps clients move from scattered systems and manual reporting to architecture, automation, and measurable financial outcomes.

Featured case studies

How we turn messy operations into leverage

Digital twin and factory analytics visualization

$10.2M annual savings delivered

MEP / manufacturing

Menasco – From siloed data to digital twins

Top ten MEP firm in the Middle East, 900+ office staff, multi-region footprint.

Cortex unified Menasco’s architecture into a secure VPC, consolidated operational and financial data, and deployed digital twins of key prefabrication lines. The result was predictable throughput, fewer failures, and a live view of project economics.

19–28% downtime reduction by line

76% reduction in expense leakage

3800+ manual hours removed

Operations and analytics dashboard on multiple screens

6× ROI in year one

Field operations

Contractor – Turning spreadsheets into live operations

Regional contractor with distributed project teams and fragmented reporting.

Cortex replaced spreadsheet-based status reports with a unified data model, streaming telemetry from job sites, and a single operational dashboard. Leaders saw the impact of delays, change orders, and asset utilization in real time instead of at month end.

35% faster monthly close

25% cut in avoidable overtime

4 hrs → 20 min to assemble exec reports

AI and data pipeline concepts on abstract background

6–9× ROI on AI workloads

Data and AI

Industrial group – From pilots to production AI

Multi-business industrial group struggling to scale beyond proof-of-concept models.

Cortex designed a common feature store, model deployment pipeline, and monitoring stack. Teams now ship models into production on a predictable cadence with clear ownership and guardrails around cost and performance.

70% reduction in time to deploy

95% of models monitored in real time

3+ new revenue streams unlocked

Public research

Studies on technology adoption and its positive impact worldwide

+1.5%–2% GDP uplift from broadband

Digital infrastructure

World Bank & ITU – Broadband and economic growth

Cross-country research on the relationship between broadband penetration and GDP per capita growth.

Public studies consistently show that expanding high-speed internet access correlates with higher productivity, innovation, and employment. Regions that invest in broadband infrastructure see faster growth in digital services, exports, and overall economic output.

10% increase in broadband → measurable GDP gains

+Jobs in services, ICT, and remote work

Higher innovation & firm creation rates

Cloud adoption and business growth visualization

2–3× faster revenue growth

Cloud & digitalization

OECD & industry reports – Cloud adoption and SME performance

Research across Europe, North America, and Asia on how cloud services affect smaller firms.

Studies on SMEs show that companies adopting cloud-based tools and analytics grow faster, export more, and are more resilient to shocks. Access to scalable infrastructure reduces fixed costs and lets teams experiment with new products at lower risk.

Higher probability of exporting

Lower IT capex burden

Improved business continuity & agility

+14%–35% productivity lift in pilots

AI & automation

Academic trials – AI copilots and knowledge work

Randomized controlled trials of AI-assisted tools in support, coding, and document work.

Recent experiments show that AI copilots can materially improve speed and quality, especially for less-experienced workers. The biggest gains come when tools are paired with good process design and clear guardrails, not just dropped into existing workflows.

Faster task completion across cohorts

Higher average quality ratings

Narrower performance gap between workers
